Poles, because he waited too long to work a deal. Now the QB needy teams already grabbed one. Why would a team give up a good draft pick for Fields now when there is no competition for him?

Let’s be honest. A 2nd round pick could be another starter, an OL for example. Obviously a GM shouldn’t be banking their offseason on receiving a 2nd round pick happening for sure, but it would be a pretty big difference.

The Score is talking about this right now. Danny Parkins thinks that this news is bogus and that Poles already oversold his hand and is trying to save face now. Basically, before the combine, all the NFL reporters were saying that Justin Fields could bring back a 2nd or 3rd round pick. Then, the news came out during the combine that the Bears were definitely drafting Caleb Williams. So now, all the rest of the QB needy teams in the NFL know the Bears have to deal Fields and aren’t willing to give up as much as what he was initially rumored to be worth.

“This is White Sox baseball corpseball.”

The rest of the NFL apparently knows Fields can’t throw the ball and that he’s a RB pretending to be a QB, just like Bears fans.

Sometimes a QB needs to win games with their arm in today’s NFL. Fields does not have the ability to do so.

The Bears record was 10-28 with Fields as their starter.

Weren’t there a couple posters here that actually wanted to stick with Fields over drafting Caleb Williams? I guess this goes to show the value of Fields to the rest of the league. No one is jumping to make the guy their team’s starting QB.

To serve as a backup? I’d rather take a 3rd or lower round pick back if that’s all he’s worth.

The Eagles replaced D’Andre Swift with Saquon Barkley. If you didn’t like the Swift contract…

I am assuming NE takes a QB (Jayden Daniels) and Tennessee will stick with Will Levis.

So we are basically down to the Raiders?

Trade Fields to the Vikings. Who cares? When you play the Vikings, use a QB spy and he’s done.

Trade em both.

DeJong batting cleanup. Impressive.

JR trying to leech off of the Bears is so embarrassing and unsurprising. Glad to see they apparently told him to go kick rocks.

They obviously want Caleb to have multiple pass catching options to succeed but I’m not a fan of overpaying RBs over drafting them in later rounds. Swift is pretty stupid. He thinks he can turn any carry into a positive gain. I can’t remember which game it was but rather than going down for no gain, he kept running backwards on a blitz thinking he was going to turn the corner on the defense on both sidelines and ended up with a 15 yard loss.

That’s what Brad Biggs reported on The Score.

That’s the only positive. Overpaying a RB. Yuck.

Agreed.

The Cubs are going to be in playoff contention. The Sox are going to bad a bad team. Bellinger switching the side of town he plays for was never going to change these things.

Yup, when do fans just realize and accept that JR isn’t actually trying to compete? The owner who thinks 2nd place finishes are great — the dangling carrot in front of the horse (a.k.a. Sox fans).
